Tomato soup with white wine and seafood

30 minutes

Tomato soup with white wine and seafood is an exquisite dish of French cuisine that embodies the sophistication of taste and the aroma of sea breeze. The white wine adds an elegant acidity to the soup, harmoniously contrasting the sweetness of tomatoes and the rich marine notes of octopus, shrimp, and squid. The velvety texture is achieved through butter and flour, while the freshness of herbs—parsley and basil—fills the soup with lightness. Legends say that such soups first appeared in coastal regions of France where fishermen created simple yet delightful dishes from fresh seafood upon returning with their catch. This soup is perfect for a festive dinner or a cozy evening when one wants to immerse in the atmosphere of Provençal comfort.
